“Simplified” GTC4 Ferrari Lusso made its debut in Paris.
The appearance in the name of the letter T suggests that under the hood of this sports car instead of the usual 6.3-liter twelve-cylinder atmospheric engine now ordered the turbo.
To be more precise, it is borrowed from the Ferrari California T 3.9-liter turbo”eight”. However, GTC4 Ferrari Lusso T it boosted from 560 to 610 HP (760 N?m). Transmission seven-speed double clutch robotic transmission with two clutches, though remained the same, but has undergone a small revision.
Also the car had been stripped of all-wheel drive system 4RM that allowed to lose the extra 50 kg of weight, and now the vehicle weight is 1740 kg. To overcome the first hundred machine spends 3.5 seconds and accelerates to 320 km/h wheel-drive modification GTC4 Ferrari Lusso with a 680-horsepower twelve-cylinder engine overcomes the first hundred for 0.1 s faster and the speed she is 15 km/h more. Despite a slightly worst performance, improved efficiency. Fuel consumption now is 11.6 liters per hundred kilometers, compared to 15.3 liters at GTC4 Lusso.
Other changes worth noting modernized system skid control, Side Slip Control 3, reconfigured taking into account the changed weight distribution of the car. And full drive modification, turbulence has polnopravnym chassis with the steering a few degrees to the rear axle. Unfortunately, the Italians did not report the price GTC4 Ferrari Lusso T, although it is clear that the car will be cheaper four-wheel drive versions, which will be produced in parallel with the new. But, judging by the fact that a growing number of Ferrari models and you add a turbo engine, the era of classic twelve-atmosferico coming to an end.
And it is possible that the successor GTC4 Ferrari Lusso, which will be released in a few years, generally will have in its Arsenal the atmospheric engine. However, this applies to other Ferrari models.
